[OGo-MacOSX] Unclear about compiling on MacOSX

[Alexander Lamb]

Ok, now I am confused!

What is the difference between building SOPE with XCode and doing a ./ 
configure then make?

 From what I saw (I also refered to the explanations on the site:  
http://philippe.laval.free.fr/Programmation/SOPE/) when compiling  
SOPE, you get a set of .framekwork directories in your Library. I  
then copy them to the /Library of the system. This seems familiar.

What is different when doing a ./configure then make?

 From what I understand, it doesn't create .framework directories but  
a load of libraries in my /usr/local/lib directory such as  
libEOControl_d.dylib as well as a SOPE-4.5 directory with database  
adaptors among other things.
It also installed headers in the include directory and a few  
executables in the bin directory.

Is this correct?

If so, it would be nice to have a list of what is installed and what  
is the purpose of the files (especially the executables).

Now, three questions before I go forward: (I had trouble building OGo  
in spite of the successfull build of SOPE)

1)
Why this very "unix like" install when the .framework solution seems  
to be working fine?

2)
Where are the WOComponents (.wod directories)?

3)
(Maybe a stupid question) what is FHS?

For info, here is the output of my ./configure: (I did follow the  
GNUmake instructions)

GNUstep environment:
   system: /Users/alamb/GNUstep
   local:  /Users/alamb/GNUstep
   user:   /Users/alamb/GNUstep
   path:   /Users/alamb/GNUstep
   flat:   yes
   arch:   i386-apple-darwin8.6.1
   combo:  apple-apple-nil

Note: will install in default location: /usr/local/

Configuration:
   FHS:    install in FHS root
   debug:  yes
   strip:  no
   prefix:     /usr/local/
   frameworks:
   gstep:      /Users/alamb/GNUstep/Library/Makefiles/
   config:     /Users/alamb/_Workspace/SOPE-4.5/config.make
   script:     /Users/alamb/GNUstep/Library/Makefiles//GNUstep.sh
